- Twitter confirmed on Friday that the official Twitter accounts of social media giant Facebook Inc and its Messenger platform were hacked. A Twitter spokesperson said in an emailed statement that the accounts were hacked through a third-party platform. “As soon as we were made aware of the issue, we locked the compromised accounts and are working closely with our partners at Facebook to restore them,” the Twitter spokesperson said.

The account of Twitter Inc Chief Executive Jack Dorsey was hacked in August, allowing an unauthorized person to send public tweets including racial slurs and curse words to his 4 million followers before Twitter secured the account.

Trump is coming after everyone who crossed him. It’s getting scary

did Facebook say anything about it?

怪不得，有时我多次想发帖，都发不了

How 'hacked' are their accounts really when Facebook gave access themselves with the 3rd party app access in which you give permission for 3rd parties to post Wouldn't that be a leak by Facebook's own policy? 🤔

🤣🤣🤣

what?😂🤔🤔

Explains why the bots are crazy right now

MSpadine Very sorry to hear, I hope all will be fine soon. Am saddened that hatred persists in society. I've had from StarWars fans, don't think they're quite done with me yet - and here was racial. It's 2020. Time to be much better. 😢💙

Sorry! That’s because I uninstalled Messenger. It’s throwing a tantrum. It’s by far the worst eavesdropper. Sorry Ai. Don’t worry, they’re dumb as shit and they’ll never figure it out.

I can confirm this as my FB and Messenger accounts were hacked

happens all the time hell some one always reading or listening any way

Reading this confused me.

Twitter has been completely controlled by the U.S. government, and whatever he wants to do, there will be alternatives in a few days.

Facebook again? Mmm
